Sue,

Thanks for the response. I can't say that I feel hopeless. But I will say that I am losing patience and I think that my wife knows it. It is clear that she is "not in love" with me. She loves me but more like a brother. I do see some progress albeit very slowly and that is the problem.

Even before the EA my wife was not what I would consider a very sexual. Now it is like the North Pole and I know it is something that bothers her greatly. Funny thing is over the last two months I have not even asked her for sex because I know what the answer is going to be and I don't want to pressure her.

I am not hopeless but my frusration sure is reaching it's maximum point. It almost can make a man think about having an affair. I know that is not the answer but at somepoint there is a need for affection. Sounds like as long as she is talking with OM there is not much hope. BTW OM's wife called me a couple of weeks ago. Told me that they are not having sex, which I find ver strange for a male. What is your take on that?
